Each week the Sheffield Running Club organises a run of between an hour and an hour and a half at about 10 minute mile pace.Today Sunday we ran from Wortley in North Sheffield.Next week we are planning to run from the pavilion at Graves Part at 10.30 am.It where Derbyshire Lane meets Hemsworth Rd.if you would like to run and have some company why not give it a try.

Yes, we had a lovely run yesterday. Nice socialable run with a very friendly group of people. Everyone welcome.

I'm no good at guesstimating pace, done a couple of 10ks now at about an hour each time. So 10km/hr.

How does that translate to minutes/mile (other than slow! ;) )

10K is just over 6 miles so you're running about 10 min miles in these races. You should be fine joining us on a training run :)

suspect an hour to hour+half at that speed would kill me...but only one way to improve!

If you've run a 10K at that pace I'm sure you will be fine. We have a few faster and a few slower runners so you wouldn't be left behind.
Sheffield running Club also meet at Don Valley Stadium at 6pm on Tuesdays and Thursdays and caters for all abilities. As I said before we're very friendly, just turn up if you fancy trying a run with us.

Tues/Thurs not going to happen, but Sunday might. Keep posting where you're going folks I get along to join you one day!

I assume you finish roughly where you start (so I can find the car!)?

We either run and out and back route or a circular one, so yes we always end up back where we start!

We'll try and post where the next run is each week on here. Hope you can join us.

the other venues that we are likely to use are Rivelin and Loxley ,Huntersbar/Endcliffe and Don Valley.
Which of these are most popular ?
any other popular starting points to suggest.

Rivelin, Loxley, Don /valley all do-able for me (slowly) but would rather not go too off-road atm, my ankle still isn't right after Judo match last November :(

Don't want to redo it while it's weak.

will keep posting runs on Forum ,this Sunday 19 th july10.30am at Graves Park Pavilion at the junction of Derbyshire Lane/ Hemsworth rd.Easy Run in park,on grass and paths.pace 9-10 minutes a mile,anything from 3 miles 1 lap up to 9 miles 3 laps.Come along join in ,for as little as you like.Good training for the Great Yorkshire Run.At the park ask for Dave or Nick

this Sunday 19 th july10.30am at Graves Park Pavilion at the junction of Derbyshire Lane/ Hemsworth rd.Easy Run
Would that be August ;) :hihi:

Yes its August doesn`t time fly.

Excellent run this morning even if it did rain , a range of laps round Graves Park someone even joined us on a bike .Twelve runners range of abilities look out for future Sunday venues on the forum or on www.Sheffieldrunningclub.co.uk

Hiya mate, 30yr old wondering if i can still do what i did afew years ago. would like some details about your running club. been running a couple of times recently in my locale (walkley) but think i'd be better motivated with a club and that pace sounds about right to start with

Hi Aaron,

Sheffield Running Club meets at Don Valley Stadium on Tuesday and Thursday evenings at 6pm. Tuesday sessions are an hour(ish) run, with different groups running differing paces, the slower group being 9/10 min miles. Thursday sessions are usually speed sessions, with varying formats.

We also meet on Sunday mornings for a long steady run, various locations around the city, Rivelin, Loxely, Graves Park, Wortley.

Why not come down on a Tuesday or Thursday, we meet at the end of the indoor straight, ask for Nick or Dave?

aaron just come down and give it a try ,good time to start as we have 2 or three new members joining each week .If you want to get fit to race next year ideal to train with others during the winter.
a bit more information on www.sheffieldrunningclub.co.uk.
No sunday run this week as its Bank holiday.

Sunday 2nd September we are training at Damflask, meeting at 10.30am by the wall on the approach to the dam.

Damflask eh? That's my usual trotting spot :)
Might manage to meet you all then!

When you say the wall...do you mean by the road going over the dam?

Yes, we usually meet just on the corner between the Dam wall and Loxley Road.
Hope to see you there.

Thanks for the update Sarah,hope to join you.Any other budding runners who want company for a long run at 10 minute mile pace welcome to come along,godd preparation for the Great Yorkshire Run.

When you say 'long' run...

Hi, Where is Damflask? I am new here in sheffield, I want to join the coming sunday running, please let me know the detail, like address or post code, thank you very much. jlpeter1968@hotmail.com

Long run probably 9 to 10 miles although as its out and back you could do less.Dam Flask is on Loxley Rd going out from Hillsborough on the way to Bradfield.Park and meet by the Dam Wall.

good run today two or three laps of Dam Flask,loads of runners around.As next week is Great Yorkshire Run no run,next run two weeks,watch this space.If you want to run in betwen tuesdays and thursdays at Don Valley 6pm meet at the end of the indoor straight.

9 - 10 miles a bit far for me right now...so I gave it a miss.

I'm doing well if I manage 2 laps of Damflask right now!

doing less is fine,we always have shorter options.

enjoyed the great Yorkshire Run why not join us for a Sunday Run.This Sunday Don valley at 10.30am easy run 9 to 10 minute miles opportunities to turn around at various points.

Hi,

I have in the last few months started running again and now can do a lap of dam flask (on the track inside, not road) in about 35mins so I'm guessing that's about 10 min mile but have not run much further than that.

Have sent entry for Percy Pud although probably won't get in, however need to train up for distance.

Also thinking of entering London marathon next April. Am I being very over ambitious here. Never done full marathon before, only halfs and they were decades ago, so most is 10km a few years ago!!!

Your runs round dam sound good so I can dip out after two laps at first. Is it similar at Don Valley if I try that? I reckon training with someone else will get me going better.

what is the percy pud???

Percy Pud is 10km race first weekend in December up Loxley and along Dam Flask then back again.

Always over subscribed and I didn't get in last time I tried so fingers crossed this time. I think the closing date is end September for entries.

Forms on Sheffield City Striders website - they are organisers.

All our Sunday runs wil offer the opportunity to turn back at regular imntervals.The best way to improve is to run with others

I wouldnt mind going to be honest, but a bit early for me, anyone run later... about 12 ish

not sure why but i find running easier in the early evenings than in the early mornings

Do you have any plans to go out this Sunday morning? I'm new to this, but would like to join you this week.

Well if anyone is i could do very first thing sunday morning, about 11.30.

Next Sunday 14th October 10 am 2 Runs from Grenoside Community Centre.One run at about 10 minute mile pace led by Dave and a run at about 8 minute mile pace led by Mick.Car parking available at the start.

Sunday morning..10 am.....Is it light at that time in the morning, i thought 11am was bad enough.

Any one running in the week, or at a better time...

Try Don Valley 6pm on Tuesday or Thurday.Now its getting dark it much easier running with others . Three different groups on Tuesday,interval training for beginers on Thursdays.Meet at the far end of the indoor straight

This Sunday 28th October 10.30am run from Hunters Bar maint entrance,approx 75 minutes at 9 to 10 minutes a mile, opportunities to do less.Organised by Sheffield Running Club non members welcome.

is this at hunters bar roundabout entrance to park?

yes at the roundabourt entrance to the park at 10.30am sunday 28th October

Are you running tomorrow?

The run was from Penistone for those that wern`t doing the cross country league. Next week we are all racing in Matlock , but will post runs after that.

Run this Sunday 11th november. from Rivelin Valley Fire Station at 10.30 am seven or eight miles at 9 to 10 minute mile pace . Ask for Alison

This Sunday 18th November at 10am from the Pavilion on the corner of Graves Park where Derbyshire Lane and Hemsworth Lane meet . Two different runs on offer , one at 8 minute miles and one at 10 minute miles ask for Dave or Jenny.

How far are the runs this sunday nick?

Between 8 to 10 miles but if you wanted to do less then the leaders would arrange a point where you could turn around without getting lost.

Thanks. I think it would be good to join you and I might be ok doing 8 miles at 8min miles so may have to turn back. I'll try to meet up on Sunday.

one of the two runs will stay in the Park so its very east to tailor this to the distance you want.Make sure that you meet at the Sports pavilion on the corner of Derbyshire Lane.

hiya ppl..m relatively new here in this city.. doing my MA in broadcast journalism... love what u guys are doing and so excited abt discovering this forum..its great~!
uhm jus wondering ..do u guys run for a cause or jus for fun.. could i get some details please.. thnks..have a fun weekend

we run for fun , fitness and even competition. Check out www.sheffieldrunningclub.co.uk or even better come down on a Tuesday night and join us from Don Valley at 6.05 pm ask for Dave. we meet at the far end of the indoor straight.

Is there a run this sunday?

yes meet in the Car Park at Don valley Stadium just before 10 oclock, likely to be out and back along the canal so easy for anyone who want either the full run about an hour at 9/10 minute mile pace or wants to do less.Ask for Dave

For those not doing Percy Pud an ideal run for those training for next years half marathon. meet at 10.30 Sunday 2nd December at Wortley Stables off Finkle street on the trans Pennine Trail

do you get straggelers or do you all stick together?

Sunday 2nd September we are training at Damflask, meeting at 10.30am by the wall on the approach to the dam.

a good run is from the bottom of loxley valley up the middle following the river to dam flask, touch the wall and then back along loxley rd back to where you start. About 10 miles.

No one is ever left behind, if the group gets spread they will aleays stop and regroup. Sometimes the group may split into a faster and slower group.

The run this Sunday is going to be from Hillsborough park heading out towards Oughtibridge. Meeting in the car park on the corner of Penistone and parkside roads at 10.30am.

How far/fast is the plan this week?

The pace and time will depend on who turns up but it will probably be about 9 min miles and between 75 and 90 mins.

Is there a run tomorrow?

Anyone planning a run this sunday?

next training run from the Car Park in Hillsborough Park at the junction of Penistone Rd and Parkside Rd at 10.30 am.Sunday 13th January.Ideal as part of training for the Sheffield half marathon or London.main run about 1 hour twenty minutes at 10 minute miling scope to turn back earlier.

hiya mate is it ok if i show up for this run?????

No problem just turn up and join in.

This weeks runs are from Grenoside Community Centre,Main street Grenoside. two or perhaps even three runs to cater fopr different abilities 10 am start Sunday 20th January.

Training Runs on Tuesdays continue. This week about 40 runners split into 4 different groups of varied abilities. Meet 6pm at Don Valley Stadium at the end of the indoor straight ask for Dave, Nick or Adrian

Thanks Nick for what was a good run and will you thank dave for looking after the group I was in , look forward to the next one

Over 25 runners out this morning, split into three seperate groups,ideal for those training for the Sheffield Half Marathon and London.Look out for details of next weeks run on Wednesday.

Another good run this Sunday Nick, great turn out too. Hope the big turn outs continue in the week too, Tuesday runs seem to more and more popular, I guess with the Sheffield half coming up the number will grow and grow. See you all Tues at Don Valley.

This weeks run the 27th January from Dam Flask meet on the main Dam Wall at 10.30am.Scope for a 3 mile run , 6 mile run or 9 mile run all about 9 minute mile pace.

I'll be there, 27/01 10.30 at Dam Flask. I need to get the distance in me legs so I'll probably do the nine miles, but the shorter runs are a good distance for the beginners. It's a good run, I enjoyed it last time I was out with the club. See you Sunday Nick.

Looking forward to the run on Sunday. There should be a good turnout with the Sheffield half marathon training getting into full swing!

this weeks run 3rd February is from Hunters Bar meet at the main gate at 10.30am.A run of an hour and twenty minutes with shorter options available.Ideal preparation for those running the Sheffield half marathon.

nick

Thanks nick hope the weather isnt too bad hope to see you there need a long run

This weeks run Sunday 10th February at 10.30am.Involves the trans pennine trail much of which is flat.
Meet at the car park on Finkle Street,take the A629 turning off the A61 at the Jet garage signposted Huddersfield.Just after Stocksbridge Bypass take the first left -Finkle Street,about 600yds come to trans pennine car park at Riding Stables on the right hand side of the Rd.7-9 mile run at 9-10 minute mile pace with shorter options available.
If you cant make Sundays try Tuesday nights from Don Valley at 6pm, this week 38 runners split into four ability groups.

Excellent 9 mile run yesterday along the transpenine trail. Great to see so many people preparing for the Sheffield half and enjoying the lovely weather!

Half marathon training is so much easier in a group, does anyone know where next Sunday's run is from and what time? I'm really looking forward the run from Encliffe park on the 24th, if the turn out is anything like yesterday and last Tuesday evening it should be a good run.

This weeks run Sunday 17th February at 10.30am from Crosspool.Meet at the junction of Coldwell Lane and the A57 Manchester Rd.Parking available Moorbank Rd or on main road. A run of between one hour and one and a half as always options to turn back earlier.Ideal run for those training for half marathons and 10K`s

I'll be there! Looking forward to another great Sunday run, hopefully the weather wil be as kind to us as last week.

This weeks run from Hunters Bar at 10am Sunday 24th February . At least two different groups. An intermediate group running at around 8 minute mile pace and the half marathon training group running at between 9 -10 minute mile pace. Both runs aiming at 8-10 miles but lots of opportunities to turn back earlier.Not too late to join the Tuesday programme at Don Valley 3 new people this week.

Really looking forward to this Sundays run. The turnout should be a good one, if the pasts week ends are anything to go by and the mixture of abilities is great. Half marathon training has really kicked in now, another good show last night despite the cold. See you all at six, Don Valley for Thursdays session.

looking forward to sunday missed last week to do wombwell 5 had a good run thanks to training with this group

Last Sundays run over 24 runners in two different groups, two new runners at Tuesday training. This weeks run Sunday 2nd March 10.30am from the top car at Hillsborough Park by Parkside Rd. A long run aimed at half marathon trainees about 10 miles at 9 to 10 minute mile pace

I hope to be back out again in a couple of weeks. The torn calf from the run on the 20th Jan has been desperately slow to heal. Missed competing in the Tough Guy event, but went down and marshalled instead.

Jerry

www.steel-city.co.uk

hope injury is improving . If its longstanding worth seeing a physio lots of good recommendations on the forum

I've upped my training, getting ready for the Sheffield half so I've managed to land myself with a couple of niggles. I've just had a couple of session at Hallamshire Physiotherapy, they've been really helpful. You should give them a go.

Looking forward to this Sunday's run. If anyone wants to join us for a shorter run there's a 3 mile loop from Hillsborough, through Beeley woods and back via Middlewood Road which would be ideal.

Really good idea Sarah, there's a lot of poeple who are only just starting their Sheffield half marathon training, a 3 mile loop's a great starting distance.

is this open for anyone to join in?

Yes Sarah feel free to join us.

Great 8 mile run yesterday though the woods. Nice to see another new face. Hope you enoyed the run Sarah and hopefully we'll be seeing you again soon.

This weeks run from Rivelin valley Fire Station 9th March meet at 10.30am. Approx 8-10 miles at 9-10 minute miling options to turn back sooner ask for Dave.

looking farward to this run need some long runs behind me and if im feeling fit could always give the wife the car keys and run back up to ecclesfield :gag:

I'll be there again this week, really enjoyed last week's run!

This sounds good, i did the sheff half marathon last year and entered it again this year but my training partner is now a dad so has less time so i miss out because i have crap will power. Where will you be meeting this week? I need to get some long runs in ASAP!

this weeks run Sunday 16th March from Hillsborough Park at the car park on the junction of Parkside Rd. Run starts at 10.30 am , particularly aimed at those who are training for the Sheffield half marathon, 9-10 minute miling, about an hour and a half.Really good turnouts,much easier to run with others come and try it or come down Tuesday at 6pm Don valley,we had 44 people this week so you won`t be lonely.

injury permitting, i might join you fir my first "SF" run?

Would love to join everyone one the next run-I'm free at the weekend. However I'm usure of my current fitness level for running more than 5 miles, and think I've left it too late to train for the half-marathon. Would it be better to join the group when I am sure? Wouldn't want to lag behind and cause anyone else to slow down, or get lost somewhere alone in the Sheffield wilderness. :)

Any advice welcome.:)

Hey
Anyone know of any groups that go for distance runs of around 7:30-8:00 min pace?
Rdgs
Matt

Matt if you can get down to Don Valley at 6pm on a Tuesday we have a group that is running at that pace for 9 - 10 miles. We meet at the end of the indoor straight . Ask for me.

Metaphoria if you can get down Tuesday nights at 6pm we have a run that you could join. meet at the end of the indoor straight Don Valley.

Where do you go when you start from hunters bar? I live near there and go past there and up ecclesal road south upto dore and whirlow then turn round at the hsbc sports place back to where i live near hallamshire hospital

Run to humters bar then run straight up through the parks to the very top at Ringinglow.Turn right and take the footpath 50yds further on (on your lrft)and this takes you round to the Burbage Rd. Go straight over the road and run to the end of the plantation and turn back on the track that brings you back to Ringinglow.either you can continue back on Ringinglow Rd or turn right down Limb Valley to Ecclesall Rd South.

Alternatively stay on the Rd at the top of the porter valley, turn right,run over to Redmires dam, either back on Sandygaye Rd or go down Wyming brook and return via Manchester Rd

NickDuggan...thanks. Tuesdays are a possibility (actually that's tommorow). I'll see what I can do. Is this every Tuesday? Not sure about tomorrow (work), but please could you give me rough directions?

Thanks again.:)

Indoor straight Don Valley. Actually, I've found directions on another thread, and I think I could find it. Hope there's a car-park nearby, and I dont get stuck around a one-way street system.

Which is usually a slight problem I have.:)

No problem big car Park

This weeks run the 23rd March from Graves Park at 10.30am from the Pavilion near the junction of Derbyshire Lane and Hemsworth Rd.
two different runs one at 10 minute mile pace and one at 8 minute mile pace ask for Adrian and Maria.

I could give you a lift but will be online till 11.30 pm so need to get in contact before then

thanks foo fighter

No problem nick but sarahrbird not been back to me can you tell me if run is 10 or 10.30 please

i UNDERSTAND ITS 10.30AM

I don't feel quite fit enough to train with you guys just yet. I think I will need about a month to get to a reasonable fitness level.

Why do you say that not everybody who runs with the club are skiny speed murchants :wow: the suport these guys give great

Foofighter...see post #100. It's covering the distance that worries me. I'll be doing a few runs on my own in the meantime. Problem is-I never know how far I've run, or how fast-so I've no idea if I'm up to keeping up with you. :)

dont have to go the full distance drop of points along the way one group always do loops near DV to make it easy to get back no one left on there own

dont have to go the full distance drop of points along the way one group always do loops near DV to make it easy to get back no one left on there own

Hi people i was just wondering if you had plans for a run this weekend and if so what were the arrangements? Can you just turn up and run and what is usually the distance and standard of runners?
Thanks,
Matt

Hi matt the run this week will go from rother vally country park the car park at rother vally way at 10am there is no problem with just turning up the more the merior as for the ability and distance the ability is mixed as this run is for every one and this course is anything from three to eleven miles so if you or anyone else who comes cant do the full distance there are a few places to drop out as we never realy get that far from the car park

Plenty of notice next weeks run Sunday 18th January from the Grenoside Community Centre 10am .At least two different groups one running 9-10 minute miles and the other 7-8 minute miles approx 90 minutes perfect for those training for full and half marathons and those who find long runs without company difficult .

going to be a good run sunday lets hope the wind drops a bit

Great run this morning glorious sunshine and views above grenoside, 18 runners out,half marathon training continues on Tuesday .

This week we are running from hillsborough park in the car park 10am hope to see you all there

steve do we have a run this week .

Yes the run this week is going from don vally stadium we are meeting at 10am at the gates to the car park and the route is most of the sheffield half marathon so if you want to know what the route is like come along

Did the percy pud in58 mins in december. I`m not looking for speedy runs just something to motivate me.

hi spudgun thursdays it is a speed endurance run but we do laps so its at your pace tuesday is a long run with my group running about 10 min miles we have runs on sundays from different areas of the city that are not fast but as we are training for the sheff half are now long you are welcome to come down any time to see what you think

Sounds like you`re a bit too fast for my sort of pace at the moment. Guess i`ll have to build up my speed and endurance first
